Chapter 37 - His Decision For Incomparable Power

Xiao Lin smiled.

"Good!" He said.

He then asked "Tell me, on what mountain peak can I find a particular sect at the Greensilk valley?"

"Greensilk valley?" Deathwind asked

Xiao Lin nodded his head.

Then Deathwind thought for sometime before saying "Walk to the heart of the valley, I mean the center. There, you will find three tall mountains standing so close to each other that they would seem they were fused together. That's the group of mountains that you are looking for. So, once you can scale any of them to the top, you will come before the small sect that is at the center of the mountain at the middle."

"Hmm." Xiao Lin said with a smile in his face and a slight nod of his head.

He then said "Thanks for the info."

However, Deathwind only looked at him with coldness erupting off of his annoyed gaze.

Xiao Lin saw the gaze and produced an indecipherable smile in his face.

Then he suddenly raised his hand in the air and directed a slap at Deathwind's face.

Pah!

Xiao Lin's hand landed in Deathwind's face and caused his head to look in another direction.

Then due to the hard palm of Xiao Lin as it had been toughened to an unusually high degree, and due to the amount of force that it moved with, some of Deathwind's teeth actually shot out from his mouth like they were real projectiles.

Deathwind who wasn't expecting Xiao Lin to do that, turned his head from where it was forced to look in to stare at Xiao Lin with a really venomous gaze in his eyes.

Then before he could say anything, Xiao Lin said "In this place at this time, I have every power over you since I am a devilgod. So, mind the way that you would stare at me, or you will get something much worse than a loud, heavy slap that will reverberate throughout the entire castle"

Hahaha!

Xiao Lin began to grin once he said that.

Even he was amused by what he said.

Then when he stopped laughing and with a cold light unexpectedly glowing in his sharp-looking eyes, he said "Now, concerning the bet that we made, since I won, give me your spatial ring, now!"

Xiao Lin commanded in a tone that couldn't be disobeyed.

Deathwind then looked at Xiao Lin with excessive rage in his eyes and asked with great fury in his voice, making him sound like a monstrous beast "And what will you do if I don't hand it to you? Remember that you are a newbie in this place, while I am your seni.."

PAH!

Deathwind couldn't finish what he wanted to say when a heavy slap landed in his face again, abruptly causing him to shut up as he was dazzled by the slap, which also made look in another direction in the room.

And, still looking in that direction with muddled eyes and disoriented senses, another slap unexpectedly landed in his face again, causing his head to look away farther away from where he was currently looking at.

When Xiao Lin was done with the number of slaps that he wanted to deliver in Deathwind's face, he asked with a bemused expression in his eyes "Senior?! A senior currently eating my slaps and digesting it? What kind of damned senior is that? Well, true that I am a newbie, but at the moment, you are the newbie, while I am the senior. Haha!"

Then once Xiao Lin stopped laughing, he ordered again with a cold, evil glint surfacing in his eyes "Give me your spatial ring!"

But Deathwind who was actually quite obstinate, refused to agree to Xiao Lin's overbearing demand.

"Hmm. I see that you are quite the stubborn type. Very good!" Xiao Lin said with a heavy tone in his voice, since he knew that no matter how hard he might shake Deathwind in this place to give him his spatial ring, he had to be really careful with the way he would go about it, or he might really attract the ire of the physician who didn't seem to like he very much and might angrily attack him for being unrestrained in his treatment room.

Then Xiao Lin nodded his head as he prepared to leave. But before he would really leave, he said with palpable waves of viciousness emitting off of his voice "I will surely ask you again for your spatial ring. And at that time, nothing will be be able to save you from my jaws of death that will seek to swallow up your life and devour your blood. However, the only way to avoid your cold, gruesome death is to run very far away from here and never ever return."

Immediately after Xiao Lin threatened him, he turned around to leave.

Then just as he opened the door to come out of the room that he was in, he saw the physician already at the door, visibly ready to march in with an intensely annoyed expression in his face.

Once Xiao Lin saw him, he produced a smirk expression in his face and then said "I am done. I am already leaving, before you will dishonorably throw me out of your place. Haha!"

He then headed towards the door to leave there and return to his room.

Now that morning would soon arrive, he had to remain within the castle, or he would get burned by the brilliant rays of the glaring sun that would intensely shine down upon everything. And he greatly hoped in his heart that nothing will go wrong from that time till evening.

When he got to his room, with a decision that he would head out in the evening of the next day to the Greensilk Valley and climb up the band of seemingly fused mountains to their peaks to 'visit' his former sect members, he sat down in the cross-legged state to begin to go through all the methods and techniques that were indelibly branded to his memory.

Then while seated on the floor of his room to comprehend some of the techniques of two of the many powerful arts in his memory, he became confused on which to actually go for first.

He became highly puzzled as to whether he should first go for the technique mentioned in the 'Way of the Demonic Blade' battle art to condense certain numbers of True Demonic Marks that will grant him great power, or the 'True Vampire Origin Blood Force' art, an Empyrean Cultivation Art which he hadn't really gone through to completely understand what it actually entails, but which he fully believes that would also grant him great, unmatched battle power at any level that he was in.

"This is really puzzling." Xiao Lin said with a deep contemplative gaze in his eyes.

He then said further after heavily exhaling "I guess that instead of leaving one to practice the other, I will rather practice the two arts. Although my cultivation speed will definitely, greatly slow down, I however don't care as long as I will hold a type of insane battle power that won't be matched or equalled by any other cultivator that would also be in the same cultivation stage that I would be in. Yea, I think that's what I will do."
